The most impressive element about Kevin Durant’s fourth preseason game as a Warrior was not the 19 points he scored in only 23 minutes in a 129-128 overtime win over the Nuggets in Denver.
Nor was it his accuracy, making 6-of-11 from the field, including 3-of-4 from 3-point distance.
No, the most impressive thing was this: Zero turnovers.

The Warriors through the first three games were Team Turnover, and Durant contributed his share, accounting for a team-high nine in 69 minutes.
Zero in that category means progress, a sign that the superstar forward is getting more acclimated to his teammates.
Durant’s statistical line: 19 points (6-of-11, 3-of-4, 4-4 from the line), three assists, two rebounds, one block and one steal and zero turnovers. He was plus-2 for the night, the only Warriors starter in the plus category.
